RSSOwl : A Desktop RSS Reader






Keeping up to date in the world of technology is a very difficult task! Every second, there is an update to anything you can imagine. From android development to new gadgets to tech events! Everything happens so fast these days and staying updated is a challenge. There are various ways of being updated, which include RSS Feeds, Social Media or daily email alerts. But, if you want the news as soon as it is published, Social media or RSS is the best option. Also, it is not possible to keep logged in to your Social Media accounts every time and stay updated. Then, RSS comes to rescue and what better than a Desktop RSS Client which notifies you of the news as per your own settings.

There are various RSS Clients available on the internet, free or paid, and have different features. I have personally used FeedDemon and RSSOwl. I found RSSOwl better as compared to FeedDemon. I did not like the formatting of FeedDemon, maybe it is like that on Windows XP. Try it on Windows 7, maybe it will work. But I seriously can not say anything about that.

So, getting back to the topic, RSSOwl is a powerful Desktop reader that can handle RSS, RDF and Atom Newsfeeds.

Features of RSSOwl:



  • It is multi-platform application that can run on Windows, Linux, Mac OSX.

  • Syncs with Google Reader to allow you to access your feeds from different computers easily.

  • Available in many languages.

  • Organize Feeds in folders.

  • Multiple columns that make reading news in the app really easy. Also, support for installed browsers on the computer.

  • Export your RSS Feeds to a file to be imported into another reader that you decide to use after this! Also, you could use the Google Reader Sync if your new Reader supports that!

  • Control the news update frequency.

  • Control the notification frequency.

  • And many more..


Final Verdict: At last, I would just say that RSS Owl is a Desktop RSS reader that you always wanted. It has all the features that you would want in a RSS Reader on your desktop. Go grab it now!! Click here to download.
